Superior traction, controlled handling - typical Audi

Source: AutoMotoTV (Glomex)

Superior traction especially in difficult winter conditions, coupled with controlled handling, are driving characteristics typical of Audi. An Audi can be steered effortlessly even in difficult road conditions. Maneuverability at low speeds in city traffic and stable straight-line stability at high speeds make Audi models easy to control. There is always sufficient power available for overtaking. To make the best possible use of the physical limits, the wheel brake on the e-tron S slightly decelerates the inside wheel on the front axle at the dynamic limit, and on both the front and rear axles on the e-tron. This distributes more torque to the outside, and the car follows the steering command particularly agilely in the direction of the curve. The traction control system (ASR) operates in one-millisecond cycles because Audi relocates individual function modules from the Electronic Stabilization Control (ESC) to the power electronics directly on the e-machines. The features described above form the framework within which Audi developers characterize and evaluate driving behavior across all models during test drives on wintry as well as solid surfaces. This is the only way to achieve what customers feel when driving their Audi: it is an Audi.
